SoC and The Exbow (in General)

A nice little extra from equipping an SoC:

If one of these large exbows hits me reducing my strength to negatives the stored physical damage received causes the SoC to still flash and my Morg to hit a strike. It's not amazing damage but it means my tank can still fight against a physical damage dealing exbow wielding team.

Johnny Was's shield flashes! [478,987]
Johnny Was tapped Dave with The Grey King [357277]

That's with -3.8 million strength.

Not bad!

Yes,

I was thinking of doing that as a work around for the exbow problem.

Then I woke up and thought:

"that is utter crap having to resort to that to defeat something that is so broken".

But it is a workaround.

Yes this works, but in general you will still most likely end up stalemating or else end up dieing because they deal more damage than you can handle or not enough to kill them. It can help turn the tide if it would be close though.

Oh, it's stalemate city at the moment, but the SoC is only 3 mill NW. Dunno if it really makes a difference, and certainly wasn't suggesting it as a workaround to be honest. It just tickled me to see fairly decent damage from strength that was that knocked down.

I get a laugh when it does that sort of damage even when I have strength as UC really doesn't do much damage at all. Its nice to see 1 hit for 3 mil even though the rest of them will all be under 200k without the SoC.
